The next morning, Jessica hurried to the GM headquarters as Moses had instructed.
"Notify the Executive Director to come to the president’s office!" Jessica frowned as she walked into the president’s office after instructing one of the assistants and, upon opening the door, was surprised to see a familiar figure sitting behind the desk. Her eyes widened in astonishment.
The person sitting behind the desk was none other than Gan Yuan.
"I’ve come for you!" Gan Yuan watched her and spoke.
"For me?" Jessica regained her senses, "What do you want with me?"
Gan Yuan stood up from the chair and walked around the desk to stand in front of her. "I want to know, the truth!"
A flicker of a different color passed through Jessica’s eyes, but she feigned calm on her face, "What truth?"
"Was the assassin last night arranged by Moses?" Gan Yuan asked bluntly.
That question caught Jessica off guard.
Of course, she knew it wasn’t the case, but even if she said so, would Gan Yuan believe her?
Jessica disguised her reaction by tossing her bag aside, "What, are you thinking of taking revenge on the gentleman?"
Just as Gan Yuan was about to speak, Jessica’s phone began to ring urgently. She quickly took out her phone and saw Paul’s call, immediately answering.
"I’ve just received a call from Wei Qian. He says... has the consultation result come out?"
Hearing his deep tone, Jessica’s heart tightened.
"Their conclusion is to perform surgery as quickly as possible; otherwise... once it flares up, it could be life-threatening. I haven’t told the boss yet - handle what you need to and come back immediately so we can plan our next move."
Given that Moses’s life was at stake, Paul was naturally anxious. Only he and Jessica were privy to the matter, and since both were Moses’s close aides, he naturally wanted to discuss it with her.
"I’ll be back immediately!"
Jessica hung up and grabbed her bag, preparing to leave.
"Jessica!" Gan Yuan reached out and grabbed her arm, "I just want to know, is this matter related to him?"
All the signs pointed to something amiss. She had come here early in the morning to wait for Jessica because she wanted an answer.
Jessica turned around, fury clouding her eyes.
The man was on the brink of death, still running around for her sake, and yet she...
"If it weren’t at the gentleman’s instruction, I would definitely kill you, even if it meant risking my life!"
If it hadn’t been for Gan Yuan, Moses would surely have already undergone surgery, and his condition would not have dragged on to the present situation...
Having said that, Jessica shook off Gan Yuan’s arm and hurried out of the office.
Gan Yuan followed out of the office, her brows furrowed as she watched Jessica’s hasty departure.
Racing downstairs and driving out of the city, Jessica rushed back to the countryside villa, her mind preoccupied with Moses, not noticing a car quietly following behind her.
By the time Jessica drove into the villa’s courtyard, Paul was pacing up and down the stairs. Seeing her get out of the car, he immediately strode towards her.
"The boss is upstairs; let’s talk in the back."
Jessica followed him to the backyard where Paul stopped.
"I’ve been thinking, this time, no matter what, we need to take him back. We can’t delay any longer."
"But..." Jessica looked helpless, "You know his temperament, he won’t listen to
